Ric Flair, 77, was reportedly taken to a Florida hospital after falling outside a Tampa bar, according to TMZ. The reported incident occurred hours after the wrestling veteran announced that a blood clot in his leg would prevent him from attending a scheduled appearance in Seattle.
Flair had attributed that cancellation to medical restrictions on the length of his journeys. He also outlined plans for surgery on the affected vein, which he stated his doctors expected would allow him to travel further afterwards.
